Arkansas District upgrades with REAP grant

Baxter Bulletin

November 15th, 2005

Arkansas’s Baxter Bulletin reports that the state’s Norfolk School District in North Central Arkansas has ordered new computers using funds from a Rural Education Achievement Program (REAP) grant. Superintendent Mike Seay said the district applied for the federal grant three years ago and has received funds every year. Seay said the grant does not provide enough money to stay current with the latest technology, but does provide the district with funds toward it.
